Our Roasted Marcona Almonds, also known as the “Queen of Almonds,” are imported from Spain. Marcona almonds are shorter, rounder, softer and sweeter than the California variety. We carefully roast them to perfection in olive oil to bring out their rich flavor. Enjoy these flavorful roasted almonds without salt.
Marcona Almonds vs. Regular Almonds
Marcona almonds are prized for being more tender, sweet, and delicate than regular almonds, with a nice buttery flavor that is due to their high oil and moisture content. California almonds have been described as tasting more “woody” in comparison. Long used in Spanish cuisine, Marcona almonds are now gaining popularity among Americans. Marcona almonds contain the same excellent health benefits as all almonds, including cholesterol-lowering monounsaturated fats.
Use Marcona almonds in salads, with cheeses, alongside fruit, and in desserts. The Spanish use marcona almonds in tapas and treats like turron, a traditional nougat candy. The enjoyable flavor, and smooth, delicate texture of these unique almonds creates a wonderful snack in itself.
Ingredients:
Almonds, Olive Oil Packaged in the same facility as peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soy, sesame, and milk products.

I especially love two things about these Marcona Almonds: 1. they are 'dry', not oily like the ones available locally; and, 2, they require far less water to grow than the almonds that were familiar to me before I was introduced to Marcona Almonds, so they are better for the environment. On a negative note, they need to be shipped from abroad (so far as I know) and that may increase their environmental impact. However, if their sales increase, perhaps almond growers in the States will be motivated to try growing them as a way to deal with water shortages. Ah, a 3rd: I love that Nuts.com ships so quickly and is so easy to deal with. I can highly recommend these almonds.
